“Lu Man Man, you’re really…”Gu Xin was so worried that she was about to cry.
She knew that it was so dangerous, yet she still went in. This woman really didn’t want to live anymore.
“Don’t think about anything now. Just do as I told you just now. Let me remind you that the government here will probably reject foreign reporters. Tell those people to pay attention to their own safety. It’s best if they can find more people to follow them. I’m afraid that the local ruffians in the county-level cities will deliberately find trouble and affect the report,”Lu Man Man said, “Oh right, there’s no signal in paddy village. Don’t be anxious if you can’t get through to my phone.”
Gu Xin could only nod her head.
Every Time Lu Man was serious, she would obediently listen to her.
However, she did not know why Lu man could understand so much and understand so much.
Even ye Heng, who was at the side, had a change of opinion of Lu Man.
People who had been in the upper-class society for a long time would not know the lifestyle of ordinary people, right? She even knew that the township government would usually hook up with local ruffians.
The moment Lu man hung up the phone, she quickly made another call. “Uncle Gu, it’s man man.”
“Man Man, what’s the matter?”Gu Zhengying’s tone was kind.
“I just asked Gu Xin to ask you to do something for me. I hope you can agree,”Lu man said sincerely.
“Man Man, why are you and uncle Gu so polite? If there’s anything, you can just look for me. You and Gu Xin grew up together. You Don’t have to look for Gu Xin. I’ve always treated you like my own daughter,”Gu Zhengying said, his tone was filled with reproach.
“No, uncle. I know you’ll definitely help me. I just hope that you can negotiate with Gu Xin this time and get her to help you manage the company. Gu Xin isn’t young anymore. I think you should give her a chance to train herself. In order to help me, Gu Xin will definitely agree to it. Stop spoiling her. One day, you’ll grow old too. You have to let Gu Xin learn to take care of herself.”
Gu zhengying seemed to be stunned for a while before he smiled and said, “Man Man, you’re really good to Gu Xin. Uncle didn’t think too much about it. I know what to do. Don’t worry.”
“Thank you, uncle. I have some urgent matters to attend to. Bye Bye, Uncle.”
“Bye bye.”
Lu man hung up the phone.
Ye Heng looked at her with a deep expression.
Lu Man looked up at Ye Heng’s eyes.
Ye Heng smiled and looked away.
He just felt that Lu man was much more rational than he thought. It seemed that she would consider everything carefully before doing anything.
He had just heard some negative news from the boss of the restaurant. He was so angry that he did not think about how to solve it. His heart only wanted to go in and find Ah Xiu as soon as possible, however, after following them for half an hour, Lu man had already had so much time to think and arrange everything. She would also think of other things that she wanted to do.
In the past, she had only thought that Ah Xiu liked Lu man man, so she had treated her differently.
Now, she felt that this woman really had the ability to make Ah Xiu like her so much.
He said, “You just said that you were afraid that the local ruffians here would stop the media from reporting the news, so I sent some people over to protect you in advance.”
“That would be the best.”Lu Man Man nodded.
If ye Heng’s people were protecting them in the dark, no one would dare to act rashly.
Ye Heng nodded, picked up the phone and gave some instructions.
The three of them looked at the road sign again and walked in.
Paddy village was surrounded by mountains, and there was a mountain road. However, the road was very narrow, and in many places, it was almost impossible to meet cars. Moreover, the road was very steep. In the past, it seemed to be an oil road, but now, it had long been crushed by cars, and it was full of potholes, because of some landslides, the road was often interrupted. The higher they went, the higher the mountain road was, and the more precipitous the cliff was. If they were not careful, they would be doomed.

Lu Man walked a little slowly.
It was obvious that she had delayed the progress of the three of them.
However, Ye Heng and Qin Ao did not show any signs of impatience. They let her walk in the middle, protecting her as they walked deeper into the mountains.
After walking for a whole day.
It was past nine o’clock in the evening, and the rain seemed to have lessened a little. The three of them were a little exhausted. Until now, they did not seem to see anyone living inside. Moreover, at night, the road ahead was even more difficult to see clearly, even with the military flashlight, it was still difficult to move forward.
“Do you want to rest for a while?”Ye Heng asked.
Lu Man Man shook her head, “Although I have never experienced this personally, I also know that tonight is such a cold day. If we don’t find a place to shelter from the wind and rain, we might freeze to death. Also, if the mountain slides again, will it bury us? Let’s go forward and find out if there is anyone living there. At the same time, we can also get some information.”
“Okay.”Ye Heng did not say much.
The rest that he was thinking about was also about her health.
Since she said to continue, he did not need to say anything else.
The three of them walked even slower. The road was slippery, and even though they were wearing hiking shoes, it was still not easy to walk. Lu Man Man did not even dare to look down because it was dark, and she did not know how high the mountain was.
The few of them continued walking forward.
Qin Ao suddenly said, “There seems to be a light ahead.”
The other two quickly raised their heads.
Sure enough, there seemed to be a small house not far ahead. The house was flickering with extremely weak lights. The lights were faintly discernible, and if one did not pay attention, they would not be able to see it at all.
“Let’s go and take a look,”ye Heng said.
The three of them walked straight towards the small house.
The house was made of stone. It was not big, and there were no other houses around it. It looked a little isolated.
Ye Heng went forward and knocked on the door.
The door opened after a long time. A candle light lit up. An old man in his fifties opened the door and looked at them in surprise. “Who are you looking for?”
“Hello, uncle. We’re from Wen City. My Friend is trapped in your village. We just entered the village today to look for someone, but it’s dark now. We Can’t go in, so we wanted to stay here for the night. Don’t worry, we’ll just sleep on the floor. We’ll pay for your accommodation,”ye Heng said in a rare low voice.
The old man looked them up and down for a long time before saying, “Come in. Keep your voices down, my wife and granddaughter are all asleep.”
“Okay.”Ye Heng quickly nodded, giving the other two a look.
After the old man let them in, he closed the door.
The living room was not big, a single candle could light up everything. Lu Man saw an extremely simple room, there was nothing else but a table for eating and a few benches.
The old man placed the candle on the table. “I don’t know if the mudslide has broken the power lines, but the power has been out for a few days.”
Then, he got up and went to another room to pour hot water for them. Then, he said, “It’s cold outside, you can burn your hands and feet first.”
“Thank you, Old Man,”Lu man said. The villagers were much simpler than the average city people.
She couldn’t help but feel touched.
“And the woman.”The old man frowned when he heard Lu Man’s voice. “It’s so dangerous in here. Why did the woman come?”
“I came to find my husband,”Lu man said. “She’s trapped in there. I Can’t rest assured.”
